A theoretical study of radiation patterns distortions caused by lateral metallization truncation in open longitudinally inhomogeneous slot structures on dielectric substrates is presented. The study is carried out on the base of mathematical models obtained by Hybrid Finite Element Method and Galerkin method in spectral domain with taking into account all surface waves.References
